ANSYS
The ANSYS module contain a number of softwares, e.g.
- ansys
- aisol
- fluent
- CFX
- ICEM
- RSM
- tgrid
- Icepak
- polyflow
- Turbogrid
- autodyn
To use any of the softwares, load the ansys module; you can find the available version with
module spider ansys
ANSYS workbench
ANSYS workbench is availble in the menu in the remote desktop.
If for some reason you need to start it manually, make sure to use vglrun
, as without this, there may be rendering problems:
vglrun runwb2
Running jobs
Running Mechanical over MPI on many nodes (example):
#!/usr/bin/env bash
#SBATCH -A PROJECT_NUMBER
#SBATCH -p hebbe
#SBATCH -N 2
#SBATCH -t 48:00:00
module load ANSYS/18.1
cp proj.dat $TMPDIR
cd $TMPDIR
sed 's/ cpu=/:/' lamnodes > machines && sed -i ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/:/g' machines
export MACHINES=$(cat machines)
ansys181 -dis -mpi intelmpi -b -machines $MACHINES < proj.dat
cp $TMPDIR/* $SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR
Suitable arguments for multi-node parallel Fluent:
-pinfiniband -ssh -cnf=$TMPDIR/mpichnodes -g
For multi-node parallel CFX, add the following line to your job script:
nodes="`sed -e :a -e N -e 's/\n/,/' -e ta $TMPDIR/mpichnodes`"
and the following to your cfx-commandline:
-par -par-dist $nodes -start-method "HP MPI Distributed Parallel"
